PTWordscapes Level 280 Answers
Palm pack - 13 words - 6 tiles
Wordscapes Level 280 answers - all 13 words built from the 6-letter wheel S H R I F T, verified against the live game. The longest answer is SHRIFT at 6 letters, a pangram that uses every tile on the wheel - place it first and the crossing letters pull the shorter fills out almost automatically.
Level 280 sits in the Palm pack of the Tropic landscape (levels 241-320), about 49% of the way through. Watch the tiles: FIST / FITS / SIFT are anagrams, and the grid takes each in its own slot. If this is not your board, the letter search identifies any level from its tiles.

How to Solve Level 280
With 6 tiles and 13 answers, level 280 is a dense board - 13 answers share these tiles, so crossing letters are worth more than guesses; place SHRIFT and work down the lengths. The spread runs 4 to 6 letters with an average of 4.4.
Note that FIRS lives inside FIRST: if the short one gets rejected, its letters may belong to the longer slot. Stuck on the next one already? Level 281 is solved too, and level 279 is a step back. The full pack is at Palm.

Why does longest-first solving work in Wordscapes?
The longest answer occupies the biggest slot in the crossword grid and crosses more other words than any shorter fill. Placing it first reveals crossing letters that narrow every shorter slot to one or two candidates. After the anchor is set, most remaining words drop in without trial and error - on this level the anchor is %word%, so starting there is the fastest route through the board.
